Calegari–Mazur conjecture on infinitesimally classical deformations

About 7 years old · traced to

Let FF be an imaginary quadratic field and let pp be a split prime. Suppose that ρ:Gal⁡(F‾/F)→GL⁡2(E)\rho:\operatorname{Gal}(\overline{F}/F)\to\operatorname{GL}_2(E) is continuous, irreducible, nearly ordinary, unramified outside a finite set of places, and admits infinitesimally classical deformations. Calegari–Mazur conjecture. One of the following holds: there exists a character χ\chi such that χ⊗ρ\chi\otimes\rho descends to a representation over Q\mathbb{Q}; or the projective image of ρ\rho is dihedral, and the determinant character descends to Q\mathbb{Q} with a CM fixed field in which a prime above pp splits. This conjecture gives the expected exceptional mechanisms for such deformations, namely base change or complex multiplication; its status is not resolved in the supplied text.
